Description

This is a division, of application Ser. No. 06/175,790, filed Aug. 6, 1980, now U.S. Pat. No. 4,336,252.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
While there are a number of commercially available mild to moderate analgesic agents, the search for alternative analgesic agents has continued because of the problems attendant with current therapy.
Aspirin and related salicylates are considered to be non-narcotic analgesic agents useful for relieving mild to moderate pain, in addition to their anti-inflammatory and anti-pyretic properties. However, the ingestion of salicylic acid or related salycilates may result in epigastric distress, nausea and vomiting. This widely used class of non-narcotic analgesic agents may also cause gastric ulceration and even hemorrhage both in experimental animals and man. Exacerbation of peptic ulcer symptoms and erosive gastritis have all been reported in patients on high dose therapy, i.e., arthritis patients. Aspirin is also one of the most common causes of drug poisoning in young children and has a potential of serious toxicity if used improperly.
Acetominophen is also considered to be a non-narcotic analgesic agent useful in treating pain associated with simple headache, common muscular aches, etc. While acetominophin is particularly useful for patients who cannot take aspirin, i.e. ulcer patients, its use is contraindicated in individuals who have exhibited a sensitivity to it.
In addition to their drawbacks in view of their potential side effects, the mild, non-narcotic analgesic agents are not sufficiently potent to relieve the severe pain associated with surgery, cancer and the like.
Unfortunately, the potent analgesic agents capable of relieving such severe pain are also narcotic agents and their use entails the risk of producing physical or psychological dependence.
One moderate analgesic agent which has enjoyed great commercial success for a number of years, α-d-propoxyphene hydrochloride(Darvon®, Eli Lilly and Co., Indianapolis, Ind.) has been widely used to relieve pain associated with dental extractions, afterbirth pain, and some post-operative pain. This widely used analgesic agent has been reported to be ineffective in relieving many types of pain, and recently, reports of serious side effects and deaths have created a need for alternative, moderate analgesic agents. The present invention provides such agents.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The analgesic agents of the present invention are novel 1-cycloalkyl phosphonium salts represented by the formula: ##STR4## wherein: R is selected from the group consisting of lower alkyl, hydroxy lower alkyl, halo lower alkyl, amino lower alkyl, cyano lower alkyl, lower alkenyl with the limitation that the double bond is not on the carbon atom attached to the oxygen atom, benzyl, substituted benzyl and ##STR5## wherein q is 0 or 1 and R4 is selected from the group consisting of hydroxy, loweralkoxy, phenyl, substituted phenyl, and ##STR6## wherein R5 and R6 are the same or different members of the group consisting of hydrogen and loweralkyl or taken together form a 5 or 6 membered ring; m is 1,2 or 3; n is 0 or 1; o is 0 or 1; p is 0 or 1; R1, R2 and R3 are the same or different members of the group consisting of hydrogen, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy and halo; and X is a pharmaceutically acceptable anion.
The compounds of this invention are useful as analgesic agents when administered to mammalian patients suffering from mild to moderate pain in oral or patenteral dosages of from about 0.2 to 20 mg/kg of body weight and preferably from about 1 to 10 mg/kg of body weight. Generally the compounds are administered every three to six hours unless formulated in sustained release form, in which case they may be administered every 6 to 12 hours until the pain has diminished.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
The term "lower alkyl," as used herein, refers to straight and branched chain alkyl radicals having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms such as methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, iso-propyl, n-butyl, iso-butyl, tert-butyl, n-pentyl, 2-methyl-butyl, 2,2-dimethyl-propyl, n-hexyl, etc.
The terms "hydroxy lower alkyl," "halo lower alkyl," amino lower alkyl, and "cyano lower alkyl" refer to substituted C2 -C6 straight or branched chain alkyl radicals such as hydroxyethyl, 3-cyano-n-pentyl, 2-chloro-n-propyl; trifluoromethyl, etc., i.e., mono, di- or tri-substituted lower alkyl radicals.
The term "lower alkenyl" refers to C2 -C6 straight or branched chain alkenyl radicals and are limited to those having a double bond in a position other than on the carbon adjacent the oxygen.
The term "substituted benzyl" refers to a mono, di- or tri-substituted benzyl radical, substituted by lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, halo, nitro, cyano, halo lower alkyl, hydroxy, alkylcarbonyl, etc.
The term "lower alkoxy" refers to straight or branched chain C1 -C6 alkoxy groups, i.e., methoxy, ethoxy, isopropoxy, etc.
The term "anions" includes, but is not limited to pharmaceutically acceptable (non-toxic) anions such as chloride, bromide, iodide, fluoride, acetate, propionate, sulfate, bisulfate, acetate, oxalate, valerate, oleate, laurate, borate, citrate, maleate, fumarate, lactate, succinate, tartrate, benzoate, tetrafluoroborate, trifluoromethylsulfonate, napsylate, tosylate, etc.
The term "pharmaceutically acceptable salts" refers to the hydrochlorides, hydrobromides, acetates etc. as well as the inner salts.
The analgesic activity of the compounds of the present invention was initially established in the mouse writhing test.
The Wittig reagents used as starting materials to prepare the compounds of this invention can be prepared by the 5 step process of House, H. O. et al., J. Org. Chem 28, 90(1963) from the appropriate lactone, or, in the case of the α-ketocyclohexyl starting materials, from the improved process of one aspect of the present invention.
Alkylation or acylation of these activated ylides on oxygen is aided by steric hinderance, the choice of non-protic solvents (although alkylation is possible in protic solvents) and the fact that an ylide is an internally charge compensated anion, therefore association with external cations is precluded. The use of non-polar, aprotic solvents also facilitate product isolation due to the polarity of the products.
Generally, the starting ylides are sufficiently reactive that reaction usually occurs conveniently at room temperature although higher or lower temperatures can be used if desired.
The process aspect of this invention allows the synthesis of α-ketocyclohexylidene triphenyl phosphorane in one step from the compounds of commonly assigned U.S. Pat. No. 4,075,407 or a total of three steps from a lactone disclosed in commonly assigned, copending U.S. Ser. No. 1,727,81, filed July 28, 1980, thus affording a considerable savings over prior art processes.

8.5 g of the product of Example 2, was dissolved in about 50 ml of methanol and 450 ml of H2 O was added. Solid potassium carbonate (excess) was added and the crystals filtered, washed with water and dried overnight at 110° C./0.5 mm pressure to give 6.88 g of product. ##STR30##
While the phosphorane of Example 23 can be prepared in a single step by adding base to Example 22, it is advantageous to add any suitable base such as triethylamine, sodium hydroxide, etc., after the salt has formed. The conversion thereafter is instantaneous.
The process of Example 22 requires temperatures in excess of 110° C., i.e. from 110° C.-180° C., preferably from about 135° C.-150° C. and most preferably at about 140° C. for from about 24-84 hours.
Pharmaceutical compositions comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of the present invention and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent are also provided by the present invention.
Solid dosage forms for oral administration include capsules, tablets, pills, powders and granules. In such solid dosage forms, the active compound is admixed with at least one inert diluent such as sucrose, lactose, or starch. Such dosage forms can also comprise, as is normal practice, additional substances other than inert diluents, e.g., lubricating agents such as magnesium stearate. In the case of capsules, tablets and pills, the dosage forms may also comprise buffering agents. Tablets and pills can additionally be prepared with enteric coatings.
Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups, and elixirs containing inert diluents commonly used in the art, such as water. Besides, inert diluents, such compositions can also include adjuvants, such as wetting agents, emulsifying and suspending agents, and sweetening, flavoring, and perfuming agents.
Preparations according to this invention for parenteral administration include sterile aqueous or non-aqueous solutions, suspensions, or emulsions. Examples of non-aqueous solvents or vehicles are propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, vegetable oils, such as olive oil, and injectable organic esters such as ethyl oleate. Such dosage forms may also contain adjuvants such as preserving, wetting, emulsifying, and dispersing agents. They may be sterilized by, for example, filtration through a bacteria-retaining filter, by incorporating sterilizing agents into the compositions, by irradiating the compositions, or by heating the compositions. They can also be manufactured in the form of sterile solid compositions which can be dissolved in sterile water, or some other sterile injectable medium immediately before use.
